Johnson addresses ethical issues in aging in a variety of
contexts--the social cultural environment, physical health care,
mental health care, social health care, legal care, and spiritual
care. Because long-term aging has created a new generation of older
adults, some new issues are emerging which need to be addressed
from an ethical perspective--elder abuse, physician assisted
suicide, dementia, intergenerational equity, guardianship, and
living wills. A wide range of experts including physicians,
philosophers, lawyers, social workers, nurses, sociologists, public
health persons, theologians, historians, and ethicists share their
insights on the ethical issues and dilemmas older adults in
American society are facing or are likely to face over the life
course. Of interest to undergraduate and graduate faculty and
students in sociology, social work and social services
practitioners, policymakers, and academic and professional
libraries.
